It'll be a system of embedded systems for the house, working behind the
scenes. A step up from a thermostat to say the least.
Basic sensors include:
Temperature / Light/ Noise Proximity/movement/Smell- Aroma
For example, let's take the use-case where the device should automatically
start dimming the lights and start turning off electronics as it notices the user
getting tired around 10 in the evening. This requires:
A camera with some kind of pattern recognition algorithm. Perhaps it detects
that the eyes are not as wide open as they are during the day or it detects a
change in posture from someone sitting up straight to slouching. Integration
with house thermostat to adjust temperature to start regulating temperature.
Integration and detection of electronics throughout the house--this could be
some form of wall plug-in that can be replicated so that expansion is
supported to as many devices as needed, all the while relaying information
back and forth to a central unit. Integration with house electrical system for
controlling light.
